100 acre wood Birthday Party!

My little baby boy is 1 year old now!  It's amazing how fast a year goes by... and now I am left thinking... where did the time go???  It feels like only yesterday we were holding this little baby...

And now we are lucky, if he sits long enough, to hold this guy...



I didn't do a whole lot for his party, we just had a few friends over during the day and our family for supper and cupcakes (oh and skype is such a great thing! our parents were able to join in watching our little guy blow out his first candle)  I went with a Winnie the Pooh theme, so I tried to transform our kitchen into the 100 acre wood... using plastic green table clothes to look like trees... if anything, our little 2 year old loved it.  :)

And the cupcakes were transformed into bumble bees

And our little boy was transformed into a... mess :)

It was a great day to celebrate the birth of this special little boy! 





Disney Princess Masquerade Masks

Lately, I've been trying to be more diligent in having craft time with my little girl.  So, I was trying to find some fun crafts to do with her, when I came across Disney family.com. 

This is my new favorite website! 

I love the ideas and different craft projects for kids.  Most of the crafts are for an older audience, but I did find these princess masks on the website and thought it would be easy enough for my toddler to decorate. 

She loved it!  Loved the sparkly glue mostly...

I think they turned out really cute!

This picture makes me laugh, but don't we all look like such pretty princesses?? 



Love n Nature

After searching for a while, I finally found some cute bedding for my little girl's room!!  I found it at Target and on sale no less!  The colors are great and the owls are just so cute!  The only downside is we only bought one curtain panel to match the set and now those curtains are nowhere to be found in stores... I'm still trying to come up with a plan to find another one.

Here's a little peek at her room:

There was a wall hanging that matched perfectly in stores, but alas I didn't buy it.  I started to regret that decision until I saw a cricut cartridge called Hoot 'n' Holler, which is filled with owls that looked alot like the owls on the bedding.  So I got to work and made my own wall hanging... again. :)  Seems I'm doing alot of this...  Anyway, the finished product looks great and matches perfectly!
